OUR TEAM

Jason

HEAD ARTIST / OWNER

It can't be denied that Jason's passion is all about the eyes. He is a qualified optometrist, practicing this (between Australia and New Zealand) within the University, Hospital and community.

Jason trained as a microblader in Los Angeles, California, at the first school to be accredited by the Los Angeles County of Health. He is a registered Body Art Practitioner under the County, and is a NZ-registered tattoo artist. As a member of the NZ Association of Registered Beauty Professionals, Jason follows the professional, hygiene, and ethical standards as set by the association. Jason is NZ’s men’s microblading expert, specialising in Guybrows! He has been operating BLADE since 2018 in Auckland and has been frequently visiting Sydney since 2022. From March 2024 he will be based in Sydney and will return to Auckland every few weeks. Always keeping up with the latest industry changes, Jason trained in Nanobrows (machine hairstrokes) in 2024 in Sydney and has transitioned from microblading to nanobrows for the majority of his clients. His niche market in Sydney is Men’s brows, but he welcomes all genders of course.

With a love for eyes, art, and an appreciation of beautiful things and an eye for detail, Jason combined his passions and created Blade. His steady, gentle hand and extensive experience in optometry mix perfectly for his clients, and he loves to see them happy with their results. 

Jason loves to travel, immersing himself into different cultures, and speaks German and Japanese among other languages. He is also an avid music fan and you can often find him front row at gigs.
